BENIFIT OF FASTING

Intermittent fasting offers significant health benefits by cycling between eating and fasting, primarily promoting weight loss, reducing insulin resistance, and lowering inflammation. It enhances cellular repair (autophagy), improves heart health, boosts brain function, and may increase longevity. These, along with improved metabolism and clearer skin, make it a powerful lifestyle intervention. Here are 10 key benefits of intermittent fasting: 1. Weight Loss and Reduced Belly Fat: By reducing calorie intake and lowering insulin levels, it boosts metabolism and forces the body to burn stored fat for fuel. 2. Improved Insulin Sensitivity/Diabetes Risk Reduction: It can lower blood sugar levels and reduce insulin resistance, helping to prevent or manage type 2 diabetes. 3.Reduced Inflammation: Studies indicate it decreases markers of chronic inflammation, which is a key driver of many diseases, including arthritis. 4. Heart Health Improvement: It helps improve various risk factors, including blood pressure, total/LDL cholesterol, and triglycerides. 5. Enhanced Cellular Repair (Autophagy): Fasting triggers autophagy, a "cleanup" process where cells break down and metabolize broken or dysfunctional proteins. 6. Improved Brain Function and Health: It boosts the production of BDNF (Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor), which supports cognitive function, learning, and memory. 7. Increased Longevity and Disease Resistance: By reducing oxidative stress and inflammation, it may help increase lifespan and protect against age-related diseases. 8. Better Eating Patterns/Habits: It can help regulate appetite and create a structured eating routine, which may assist with controlling binge eating. 9. Increased Energy and Mental Clarity: Many people experience improved focus and energy levels, likely due to the stable, consistent energy provided by burning ketones rather than glucose. 10. Improved Skin Health: Regular fasting may help clear the skin and prevent acne by encouraging internal detoxification. Credit: #AIoverview #ramadhanfasting
